Five Arlington Public Schools and the Arlington Sport and Health Club on Kirkwood Road are holding Help the Homeless events to benefit the Arlington charity Arlingtonians Meeting Emergency Needs, Inc. Every fall, the Fannie Mae Help the Homeless program raises funds and public awareness of both homelessness and AMEN’s work to address the problem in Arlington. Last year, AMEN’s assistance prevented the eviction of 586 Arlington families. Key Elementary School will hold its Help the Homeless walk on Friday, Nov. 2 during physical education classes. The Kirkwood Road Sport and Health Club has dedicated four aerobics classes held during the week of Oct. 28 to benefit AMEN. Williamsburg and Gunston Middle Schools, the Swanson Middle School Pep Band, McKinley (pictured above), Key and Glebe elementary schools recently held their school Help the Homeless walks.
